Set along Vietnam’s largest freshwater lake, the Ba Be Jungle Marathon invites runners to a breathtaking adventure this October. Held during the harvest season, the race winds through golden fields, quaint Tay hamlets and soaring limestone cliffs surrounded by rainforest. The marathon offers four scenic routes, including 10km, 21km, 42km and 70km, and is organised by the People’s Committee of Bac Kan Province and Mr. Linh’s Adventures. A portion of the proceeds from the run will go towards community development activities in the Ba Be National Park such as supporting impoverished families, renovating schools, and planting trees.
